Everyone knows the pecking order in a family has everything to do with age. The oldest sibling usually rules the roost. But what if you get cheated out of the title because of Daylight Saving Time?+
Peter Sullivan Cirioli was dubbed “Baby A” at WakeMed Cary when he arrived early Sunday morning.
“Yes, Peter was born first, it was at 1:32 a.m.,” mother Laura Cirioli said.
Thirty-four minutes later, Peter’s twin sister, Allison Raye Cirioli, known as “Baby B,” made her entrance into the world.
Because of Daylight Saving Time, Allison’s time of birth was 1:06 a.m., which makes her 26 minutes older than her brother even though he was born first.
I’m thinking even in North Carolina they ought to be able to figure this out.
Yes, Ken, but in our family we would still argue about it for the next 20 years.
What would be even cooler is if the first twin was born in Arizona without DST and the second twin in New Mexico with DST. Then which would be the older twin, huh, huh?
